Jade Marie

Hello readers of Tattoos For Women!! My name is Jade Marie! I am an internationally published tattoo collector and model originally from Boston, Massachusetts.

I started my tattoo journey two years ago after my nephew passed away from spinal muscular atrophy. His passing hit me very hard but also inspired me to live the life I've always wanted. A few days after his passing I started my right sleeve with the only portrait we ever got of my nephew Jordan and then went on to adding my daughter, Jiada Jade, who is my pride and joy in life to my forearm. Throughout my right sleeve I have an angel flying and elephant to symbolize my nephew Jordan's nursery theme and also calla lilies and morning glory flowers which were at his funeral.

My left sleeve is a series of elements that represent the field of work I'm in which is hair and makeup artistry! I have a vintage perfume bottle; makeup brushes and a lace hand piece which I absolutely love! Both of my arms were tattooed by Pete Terranova out of Las Vegas over a two month span of time! Shortly after finishing my chest piece, I went on to get Joel McDonald to tattoo both of my armpits on Valentine's Day at the Philadelphia tattoo convention while I was modeling for Fukitt clothing.
